WAO - founded in 1982, aims to
create a society that is free of violence against women. It provides emotional,
social and material support for women who have been abused; strengthens the
capacity of women that have been abused to manage themselves by providing temporary
refuge services; and creates awareness on issues of violence against women.
In 2011, the joint charitable fundraising campaign by Antabax and
Giant raised RM21,955 for Rumah Ilham and Rumah KIDS, while 2012’s campaign
contributed RM20,953 to the Breast Cancer Welfare Assocaition Malaysia (BCWA).
Selected Giant outlets were also used as venues for the organization to spread
awareness on breast cancer, at no charge.
WAO spends up to RM1.2million every year on its programmes in
support of women. WAO through our Refuge and Child Care Centre, offers an
important service for women and children who need refuge, counseling, training,
support and assistance, as they break free of cycles of violence.
Currently, The Refuge and Child Care Centre provides shelter and
protection to an average of 100 women and 120 children every year. The refuge
centre occupies a space of approximately 12,000 square feet, and has five
bedrooms, six bathrooms, a kitchen, an administration office and a store room. To find out more about the Give Hope, Receive Health community
